Come, will you go to hear the Lady Wit discourse?
Not I.
Will you go?
I will not go to hear a prating preaching woman.
O that all the Masculine Sex would say as much.
Let us go to learn Wit.
I had rather be a Dunce all my Life.
So had I, if I must have none but a Woman instructor.
Indeed women should learn, not teach.
It's a sign Men want VVit, when they go to hear a VVo∣man preach.
But let us go, if it be but to censure; for an hundred to one, but she will say something which may be contradicted.
Then let us agree to be her contradictors: for whatsoever she saith we will confute.
Nay by your favour, that you cannot do; for though you may contradict any argument, yet not confute it: for though Envy and Spight have bred Sophistry, yet Envy and Spight cannot confute the Truth.
Well, let us go howsoever, if it be but to see, and be seen of those men as will be there to hear her.
Content.
